At 7.30pm at the Comrades Hall Friday, 17th January, Broadwindsor’s Community Film Club will be showing…
Thelma (12)
(Running time 1 hour 39 mins.)
DIRECTOR: Josh Margolin
CAST: June Squibb , Parker Posey, Clark Gregg
Inspired by a real-life experience of director Josh Margolin’s own grandmother, THELMA puts a clever spin on movies like MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE, shining the spotlight on an elderly grandmother as an unlikely action hero. With infectious humour, Margolin employs the familiar tropes of the action genre in hilarious, age-appropriate ways to tackle aging with agency. In the first leading film role of her 70-year career, Squibb portrays the strong-willed Thelma with grit and determination, demonstrating that she is more than capable of taking care of business – despite what her daughter Gail, son-in-law Alan, or grandson Danny might believe.
